OVERVIEW

Overview:

The brain is highly sensitive to long term fluctuations in nutrition. The research on which foods support the brain is below with accompanying superfood smoothie recipes.

How to use this page:

This page is a roadmap for you to easily identify the right foods to eat and how to make a smoothie with the right foods for your condition.

The foods below are listed on the government research website called Pubmed. We suggest that you click on some of these foods and see the actual research. You will see why your doctor likely wants you to consume these foods.

Immediately below the recommended foods are smoothie recipes that have the most of these recommended foods included. Most doctors will want you to consume one of the smoothies listed on this page for either breakfast or lunch each day.

OUR SCORING SYSTEM

For each health protocol, we assigned a score to each recipe and each ingredient. This helps you better understand the correlation that medical research is suggesting between foods and benefits to various health conditions. Our scoring system is based on REAL RESEARCH published on pubmed.gov. This is a website that curates over 25 million different biomedical journals.
